Im currently an EMT -Basic with a volunteer rescue squad, but will be upgrading to EMT-Intermediate with the same volunteer agency. What would my premium rate be?
Since you are continuing to provide voluntary services, you are still eligible for the volunteer rate of $75.00 provided you are not receiving remuneration for your services. A volunteer is defined as an EMT – Basic / Intermediate working as a volunteer and receiving less than $600 annually as remuneration for those duties. If you receive a W-2 Form or a 1099 Form for your EMT duties, you can not apply as a volunteer. Also, note that licensed Paramedics are not eligible for our volunteer rate. In this case, you would need to upgrade your coverage to reflect your Paramedic license. You can arrange for this upgrade by e-mailing us.
